BHAIRAHAWA: Local youths of Bhairahawa on Monday burnt the effigy of Chinese President Xi Jinping protesting that China encroached some parts of Mt Everest and other parts of Nepal.
The protestors held play-cards, banners and shouted anti-China slogans saying ‘Go Back China and Return Nepali Land’ while burning Xi’s effigy.
The protest comes after a survey report recently released by the Survey Department stated that China has encroached upon 36 hectare land of Nepal.
They have warned of further escalating the protests if the Chinese side does not return the encroached upon the land to Nepal.
